Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

You need a double stroller to transport your twins from A to B. Our range includes twin prams as well as buggies that are able to be pram set up in various ways to meet your needs.

Choose a stroller which can be folded in one step and then easily tucked away into your boot. You may also prefer lightweight designs that are easy to navigate and manoeuvre, particularly if you have busy roads to navigate.

Side-by-Side

This is the most popular double pushchair. It is usually able to accommodate two children side by side. They are usually bigger than single pushchairs. This makes them less able to maneuver on footpaths. It can also be difficult to navigate through kerbs with a car seat is attached. The extra size makes them easier to maneuver through doorways and are more evenly distributed so that it is easier for you to carry them on your back.

They can be used as twin prams from the beginning and a lot of models will take both a carrycot or 2 car seats. Some models can be converted into a single mode with a basket alongside (like the Cybex Venus).

The Bugaboo Donkey 5 is a excellent illustration of this. In Twin Mode, you can fit the rear seat alongside a carrycot. This allows you to create a fully enclosed twin pushchairs room and is ideal for infants. This pram with car seat comes with some amazing accessories, such as the newborn cocoons, which can be put on either facing toward the forward direction or in any direction (for twin-facing prams). It's not as light like other options but it's incredibly well constructed.

Lightweight

Cybex is renowned for its nifty pushchairs and the single-to double is no exception. The clever frame can be expanded to take an additional seat and can be used it as a twin from birth with the addition of two infant cocoons (PS59 each) which create enclosed lie-flat spaces for babies. It can also be used in an individual mode with only one child, thanks to a large basket that sits behind the seat. It also has front and rear suspensions to take on bumps and uneven surfaces a little more easily. It is a top pick from our reviewers.

Available in a variety stylish colors.

Tandem

If you are planning to have twins, you'll require a pushchair that is tandem. This will allow each child to sit and look at each other. They are great for trips to the zoo as the children can observe the animals together. They're also perfect for parents who must keep one eye on their toddler and the other eye on their infant because they can see both of them at the same time.

Some tandem pushchairs are very flexible, as they can be converted back to single mode. This is especially useful for families with more than two kids (or just your eldest doesn't need a buggy anymore). This means you won't have an empty pushchair that you need to store away and can be expensive.

The Cybex Venus, for example can be used in double or mono mode. The frame can be expanded to allow for an additional seat. It's not the tiniest pushchair however it does come with an ample basket that can be placed behind the front seat in double mode, or at the back if in mono mode. The seats can be positioned to face each other or one can be positioned higher, so that it can look at the other and see what they're doing.

Double tandem pushchairs, such as the Joolz Geo 3, are able to seat one above the other or side-by-side. The compact, sleek frame makes it easier to maneuver through doorways and aisles in supermarkets. Certain models can be used on rough terrain or for a jogging path due to their wide rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.

Another benefit of a tandem pushchair is that it can use two carrycots or a car seat, and a buggy seat. This means you can create a travel system from the outset and save money on separate purchases. Be aware that tandems are heavier and longer, and they may be less stable when bumping into the kerbs or going over uneven surfaces. These pushchairs also need to be dismantled for fitting into cars.
